I've seen Statview, DataDesk, Systat, MacSpin and JMP.  Systat stands out as
having the worst Macintosh interface; it is a program ported from other
systems, and it shows.  FastStat and Mystat are crippled versions of Systat.
You may want to use Systat if it does things that you need to do that the
other programs can't do.

The other programs have a variety of features, including point cloud 
rotations (DataDesk, MacSpin, JMP) and linking points in different windows
(select a point in one window, say a plot or list of data, and it is 
highlighted in other windows) (DataDesk, MacSpin, JMP, ?Statview).
